Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What you'll be responsible for
Rather than managing existing accounts, you'll focus on creating new commercial opportunities.
Your day-to-day will include:
- Identifying organisations that could benefit from the company's services
- Researching key contacts and building targeted outreach campaigns
- Speaking with senior stakeholders over the phone, via email and LinkedIn
- Qualifying potential opportunities through consultative conversations
- Arranging meetings for the senior commercial team
- Keeping accurate records of activity using CRM software
- Working closely with experienced colleagues to improve your commercial approach
Who will succeed?
This role is built for someone with ambition rather than years of experience.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
You'll fit in well if you:
- Enjoy building relationships with new people
- Are naturally curious and ask good questions
- Stay motivated even when things don't go your way
- Like working towards measurable goals
- Want a career where your earnings reflect your performance
- Take feedback positively and enjoy improving your skills
Whether your background is in retail, hospitality, customer service, recruitment, fundraising or you've just graduated, what matters most is your attitude.
Your future
The business has a strong track record of promoting from within, with many senior commercial team members starting in this exact position.
If you consistently perform, you'll have the opportunity to progress into roles involving full ownership of client relationships, commercial negotiations and revenue generation.
If you're looking for a graduate opportunity where you'll be challenged, supported and rewarded from day one, we'd love to hear from you.
